    I like some metal, but it's not what I mostly listen to.
    I seem to be the only Napalm Death fan in the village.

    I dunno, I'd say if you posted a thread up on that forum, you'd find a couple more ;)

    I love ND, got to see them before, great show. One of the last gigs I've gone to in Whelans, after that it seemed most were in the Pint, and now they seem to be shifting towards the Voodoo Lounge. Bigger capacity I guess.

    Listening to these guys at the minute. Two of the members of the black metal band Anaal Nathrakh are in this band too.

    The only sludge band I've really listened to is eyehategod, would there be any other bands you'd recommend for that genre?

    Used to be a big fan, not so much anymore.

    I like the old more musically-driven kind as opposed to the modern kind where there's a high emphasis placed on technique as opposed to what sounds good. Don't want to sound pretentious but as a guitar player I just don't find metal attractive, I just feel there's a lot more distortion/gain to hide behind compared to other genres.

    I think a lot of modern metal acts could learn a lot from the "less is more" attitude, I just don't see the appeal in listening to some guy play 300 notes in 10 seconds as opposed to playing 3 or 4 that sound good.


    This is a huge issue in metal right now. Some use it well. Some don't and each song sounds the same.

    Example Dragonforce epically fast but it all sounds the same. And I don't know what happens in the studio magic maybe but live they are very sloppy.

    Steve Vai is not only fast but musically gifted. Petrucci, Michael Angelo Batio are fast but have something else.

    May not be heavish metal sounds but musically he is as good as jazz musicians.

    The second clip is art.

    Was introduced to Gojira by a friend recently, and am loving their stuff. They have a very unique sound.

    I like Lawrencium a lot.

    Mercury Iridium and Osmium are good too - but I can't stand crap like Iron. WTF IRON - YOU ARE NOT HEAVY.

    Saw Dragonforce twice and yeah, they are real sloppy live :(

    Don't really listen to much of the solo guitar player stuff, but Petrucci is great because Dream Theater had some great songs. I prefer their older stuff, 'cos I think they've dissapeared up their own asses years ago. They kinda just devolved into one of the wankiest bands out there, and have the most obnoxious fans ever. Still love a lot of their earlier albums though :p
